A scholarship foundation has awarded $7.7 million in scholarships to students on the Central and South Coasts.
The Scholarship Foundation of Santa Barbara County notified more than 2100 students in the county this week that they will be receiving aid from the non-profit organization.
Undergraduate students will be receiving an average of $3100 each, and graduate students will be getting around $3600. The scholarship winners range from students going to college, or vocational programs to those who are in law and medical schools.
